Description: 1/24/22...........Price Drop!!!! Originally listed for $50.00 First edition, first printing copy UK edition of Otherness by David Brin. Available in the US only as a paperback. Over the course of a long career, the author has won three Hugo Awards, five Locus Awards, two Seiun Awards (for best work translated into Japanese) as well as a Nebula Award and the John W. Campbell Memorial Award. He was chosen by the literary estate of Isaac Asimov to write one volume of the three volume sequel to Asimov's Foundation Trilogy.

Brin was also given the Forry Award (named for science fiction historian Forrest Ackerman) for Lifetime Achievement by the Los Angeles Science Fantasy Society (LASFS). This was the first and only publication of Otherness in hardcover and preceded the US edition (published in paperback only) by three months. Otherness won the Locus Award for Best Collection.

Its central activity is the publication of Locus, the Magazine of the Science Fiction & Fantasy Field and its website. LSFF is also responsible for the annual Locus Awards, first presented in 1971, to recognize excellence in science fiction and fantasy literature, and running a quarterly writers workshop.
